we play with media-ted planetary thinking.

otherwrlds is a creative futures media space founded by eM Perera in 2020.

at otherwrlds, artists, designers, and technologists explore creative futures as research play think nodes as digital entanglements of art, tech, media and music exploring popular culture experiences.

this happens through coPlays - our strategic play methods that re-imagine alternative visions, strategies and solutions for small and large scale collective dreaming. our coPlays are based in rewilding practices integrating popular cultures experiences in media, music and art with the sensemaking of human experience today.

our works ruminate on what it means to be messily alive as humans in the Anthropocene (i.e. an era of intense human-manipulated consumerist era marked on the planet), via our favourite digital interfaces; with a focus on new American dreaming as a globalized phenomena filtering through the multiple surfaces of social media and the digital hive mind. A dreaming not limited to the USA but integrating the meshing cultures of the new normal we live in modern times.
